I might ask it in just the opposite way: Can there be Salvation by holing-up within the confines of the Catholic church?

I recall God telling us "to go and teach, and baptize." Among the many other times He required specific "action" of people. His will in our lives often seems to be much more than just sitting and praying. I think He expects us to pray... and then get off our butts, go out among 'em, and...

I love it when those "verifications" come from outside the Bible..... maybe just out of the blue.... or something a child says.

Interesting that your mind went a machine gun as an answer, rather than an alternative of establishing relationships with potential school shooters.

I can't help remembering this little story…

And I am going to ask again... since two of you now declare that is the thing to do..... If you are going to "trust in God", what are your SPECIFIC recommendations to "Stand up Against the Demon Inspired Evil Haters"? I assume you both have already been "seeking God, believing, praying...

(It's long, but worth it) Teaching vs. Indoctrinating Your Children December 5, 2016 December 5, 2016 Editor's Pick Written by unknown. What is the difference between teaching and indoctrinating? It’s a question that we don’t often think too deeply about, because the answer feels pretty...

If you are going to "trust in God", what are your SPECIFIC recommendations to "Stand up Against the Demon Inspired Evil Haters"?

It is working again!!!!!! Thank you, Brent.

Here it is written in a somewhat better way: Psalm 23 The Passion Translation (TPT) The Good Shepherd 23 David’s poetic praise to God 1 The Lord is my best friend and my shepherd.] I always have more than enough. 2 He offers a resting place for me in his luxurious love. His tracks take me to an...

I think he was saying that far too many people may worship the writings (as the Jews do their Talmud) without really ever coming to know the author and experiencing Him living life through us.

And you didn't even spell "sentence" correctly when you criticized him.

We have many writings telling us just what a difficult time it was when the Romans decreed those things almost 2,000 years ago. The early Christians really had it rough.

You can memorize the whole book, but it takes knowing the author, or it is a waste of time.

I just love how "The Sabbath" has legalistically come to mean "Saturday" on our calendar.

So, you feel that if there were no God, your religion would continue operating just the same as it does today? In effect, the absence of God would have no affect upon it? You just might be right. It seems not too many "Christian religions" are based upon the Spirit of God actually living...

If Paul had been speaking of his "past" life, he would not say "That which I do not want to do, I do." He would have just gone ahead and done those things, not really considering God much, at all. There would have been no thought of not wanting to do them. That kind of thinking he spoke of...

Sorry. I honestly thought I have seen dozens of posts from members here swearing that we, here and now, are breathing some of the last air that will be breathed on this Earth.

Then why in the world try to act like it is a known fact that all the latter part of Revelation was intended to mean the early part of the 21st Century?

Only one problem with that approach is that "the things to come hereafter" are never categorized as happening 2,000 years, or more, off into the future, nor are they said to all happen within a particular tiny span of time. "We" have added those things we now consider "facts" to the book...
